Yup, we need to fix this too.

They need to fix the priority on that one, it seems minions are preferred over champions if both are near the cursor.

I don't see the advantage of shielding a minion over a champion in any case. Just like Soraka heal works on minions.

Keeping the wave intact to take turrets faster, and messing up last hits (especially for Malzahar E). But the power budget could be better used elsewhere.

Karma R+E can also target a minion if it is in a better position to get the speed boost to your whole team if that is what you need from it.

why would you heal a minion to stop enemy cs with soraka? when you can just tp on them instead. #4secondsUndyingMinion

Blue Moon WolfFeb 21, 20161 votes

I do that all the time when I tp. I find the minion that's getting fired on and tp to it so it waists 2-3 shots on an unkillable minion. Works better when you are bot lane since you have an ally to cover you on re-entry.

Screwing over the enemy marksman's farming is incredibly satisfying. My friend supported me as Taric and he made the enemy Jinx start cussing in All chat.

Mind games win games.

The amount of times ive shielded a siege minion from a support trying to get a relic shield proc is priceless. Try it, it's great fun

JötunheimrFeb 20, 20162 votes

I think there is a way you can set the spell to only cast on champions.

super winions need to be subjectable to champion only spells anyway imo XD

no but more realistically, treated as large monsters(gromp/sentinals/etc.)

Yeah, seriously. Supers shouldn't be coded as minions anymore given that they're tougher to take than even a Red buff.

Pointy RockFeb 20, 20169 votes

I'd love to be able to taunt a super minion as rammus. I can't tell you the amount of times that a super was beating on a tower and I'm just autoing it as rammus with powerball on cd while it's devouring my towers and making me cry.

Ults enemy champion

GhostOfShrimpmasFeb 21, 20166 votes

All I have to do is let all 3 inhibs die, then multiples waves from each lane push into the base, then I can just dunk for a solid minute.

I never realized how much I wanted that.

Best KhaZix VoidFeb 20, 201619 votes

its good for supers, actually.

Tempura KingFeb 20, 201613 votes

Let me explain the purpose of this thread: people misclick on the minions so Riot should make his E only work on monsters and champions.

00110001Feb 20, 20161 votes

Let me reiterate, target champions off their portrait...

BârdFeb 20, 20163 votes

This is not Shen ult.

There aren't portraits of enemy champions on your screen unless they are already dead.

HauntFeb 20, 20167 votes

As a player that is not bad at the game, I use my fear on super minions when they're right in the base, and I don't missclick it when I gank, because it isn't hard.

Literally just click better. This would need him more then help him.

Sahn UzalFeb 20, 20166 votes

It actually helps VS Supa minions :P summoner 31

Tibbers is counted as a minion?

5000000000000000Feb 21, 20162 votes

Better question is, what isn't counted as a minion? (Also, no, Tibbers is a pet. Not entirely sure about the differences, but the game engine allows only one pet per champion)

Jesus is SaviorFeb 20, 20163 votes

There's a button. "Target champion only"

You should use it.

FrozenFrostFyreFeb 20, 20163 votes

what if noc had an aoe tether fear? like it would send out a bunch of tethers and you would obviously only follow the person it was meant for?

ZhireFeb 21, 20163 votes

I would prefer leaving it just so we can all ping the "question mark" on that bronzie nocturne who just feared a minion during a gank

67chromeFeb 20, 20162 votes

Until that happens, guess we'll be stuck holding down the ~ key :/

Titanium70Feb 20, 20161 votes

SnowplosionFeb 20, 20162 votes

It works on monsters right now. Am I mistaken?

FantasySniperFeb 20, 20162 votes

You'd be surprised how often this happens.

Oh and while we're at it, should we do the same with summoner 11 ? There's little reason to actually kill a minion that isn't a Cannon/Super Minion with it.

DorkunedAurasFeb 20, 20162 votes

blitz smite-grab.

Support blitz grabs smite, enemy ADC feels safe behind a minion, you grab and smite their wall mid grab, giving them 0 chance to avoid or expect it.

FantasySniperFeb 20, 20162 votes

That feels super-niche, though, and not something I would be sad to see go away.

i've healed minions to mess up the other adc's cs once in a while. it's not that common, but every little bit helps.

RikariFeb 20, 20161 votes

I do that on alistar a lot lol but seeing as soraka loses mana and 10% of her hp per heal,and the size of the heal means he just last hits it later, i don't do it. Alistar's heal is small enough to actually make a dent in his cs due to minions last hitting it,its aoe so no hp is wasted,your adc gets healed,and with item 3301 he gets mana and cd upon minion death so...alistar does it better.

5000000000000000Feb 21, 20161 votes

It's pretty easy to get back health as Soraka, especially during laning phase. If you're winning lane or going even, healing cannon minions is actually pretty helpful.

RikariFeb 21, 20161 votes

except that shes got 0.9 health regen

5000000000000000Feb 22, 20161 votes

Coin and its upgrades, combined with potions, give enough HP if you're not getting poked down constantly and miss every Q. And let's be honest, nobody even tries to poke against a Soraka lane.

I've used it to push waves/take turrets.
